This course is designed for master students of management or information systems. The participants are required to have JAVA SE, at best Java EE, programming skills. Participating in lecture IS615 is no formal prerequisite, but highly recommended.

Aim of module

The goal of this term project is to collaboratively develop a concept and design as well as to implement a mobile software applicationto solve a real world problem in a student development team environment. We offer a project-based class with hands-on experience for agile software development and design thinking. Students will learn innovative product and process design for software development which then can be directly applied in exercise sessions.

The used technology will be SAP HANA Cloud Platform. Senior developers and experienced agile software engineering trainers from SAP will give a 4-day full-time trainingfor the students to teach the latest development methods as well as to introduce the used technology stack. After that, the students will develop a real case software application in teams over five bi-weekly development sprints.

Agile software development and design thinking is based on iterative and close customer collaboration. For that purpose, we provide a real 'customer'with whom the students run a design thinking workshop and iteratively develop a mobile booking application for appointments at a hairdresser in Mannheim (5 min walking distance from the University). The used technology is ready to be run on mobile devices.
